in the center of the city where land
is valuable, there is quite a large
garden in front. The garden may be
said to be two stories high, for the
terrace is a double one aud steps
lead from one portion to the other.
The house is built of a dull red
brick and is surmounted with plain
mansard roof, from which two small

HIS HOME AND ROME LIFE AND
BEREAvEAENTS.
What He Is as Secretary Of State-A
Model Of Integrity in Pub
lie Life.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The dis
tinguished gentleman who would be-
come President OF the United States
in the event of Mr.. Cleveland's dis
ability, is very much misunderstood
by great many people. Contrary to
the general impression Secretary
Bayard is one of the pleasantest and
most apl roachable of public men.
Mr.. Henry Watterson says "he lives
in ptachblow vase three thousand
miles from the sun, whatever that
may mean. No doubt, however, he
intended conveying the impression
that the Secretary was cold and for
NAL and dignified. To certain ex-
tent he is. His position is one that
requires it. We would not have
loud voiced, cross roads politician at
the head of the State Department.
He objects very properly to receiving
calls from strangers whose only
motive is curiosity, or from people
who have unimportant business
to be attended to. The govern
ment pays other men for this
work. AS | have said, he is a trife
formal and ceremonious, as, perhaps,
the premier of a great country should
be, being as he is the mouthpiece of
the Republic with the nations Of the
world. There are not many people
who know that the Secretary is some
what deaf, and, perhaps, this has
something to do with their discom-
future in conversation with him. Mel
ther is his temper any of the mildest,
and these two characteristics taken
together does not make it very pleas
ant for the low speaking visitor.
The Bayard family have long been
prominent in public affairs. The
Secretary was the third in consecu-
tive line in his family who served in
the Senate OF the United States,
covering a period Of foity-three
years. 1t was his grandfather who
made Thomas Jefferson President of
the United States in 1901, by his vote
in the House of Representatives.
The American branch of the Bay
ards are descended from long line
of ancestors numbered among the
gallant knights and courtiers con
spicuous in the wars OF France dur
ing the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries; and statesmen prominent
in colonial, revolutionary aud nation
al affairs in America during the
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

soldier who was the admiration Of all
Europe. One of these Bayard
brothers, belonging to the reformed
faith in France, fled to Holland to
escape religious persecution. While
there he wooed and welded Annie,
the sister of Peter Stuyvesant, the
doughty statesman who afterward
became Governor of New Amster-
dam. When the Governor arrived
in New York the Bayards accompa
MED him. Their family had in
creased and they brought with them
three sons and daughter. Petrus,
the youngest Of these sons was natu-
rallied in Maryland in 1854. He
married there, and it was from this
branch of the family that the three
Senator'S sprang.
Secretary Bayard has resided in
Washington quite twenty years as
Congressman, Senator and Secretary,
yes he knows fewer people, perhaps,
than many public men who have
lived here one-fourth of that time.
He has always been a poor man, has
entertained very little, and up to the
time he was called to the Cabinet he
went very little into society, though
the ladies of his family were always
prominent in all social affairs. The
Secretary is very bard and constant
worker, and, except at otiicia! enter
tainments, one rarely sees him out
side his home or office. lie is gen
orally at his desk by 9 o'clock in the
morning and seldom leaves it before
5 o'clock in the afternoon. And it
is hard work, too, that the Secretary
does. Now he receives foreign

requires a man Of very varied talents
aud requirements to attend to the
vast amount Of business carried on
by the department, and Mr.. Bayard
has his hands full. Frequently he
does not have time to go to lunch,
and sends messenger to the dairy
around the corner for a biscuit and a
glass of milk, which costs him 10
cents. This is the only meal he
takes between his early breakfast
and late dinner. The Secretary goes
to and from his home in the official
carriage, which is drawn by we'll
matched pair Of bays and is sadly in
need of coat of varnish. Usually
he is accompanied on these short
drives by one of his daughters. l
have seen him at home and at office,
on the cars and in the Senate, but it
was at his home, surrounded by his
family, that he impressed me most
favorably.

TIE WEAKER SEX.
Relative Decay OF Men and Won en-
Disease Less Fatal Among
Females.

Pittsburg Commercial Gazette:
Woman has traditional reputation
for being the weaker vessel, but it
is possible that the men are most
subject to all the influences of de-
cay. In an age so ancient that the
accounts Of it are referred to fable
rather than to history it is related
that there existed nations of women
who carried on all the operations of
business, agriculture and war with
out the aid of man. These Amazons,
of whom there appear to have
been three nations, inhabited the
Tartar countries of Europe and Asia,
while there are accounts of them in
Africa. HerodOtus relates that
Thalestris, a Queen of the Asiatic
AmaZons, with train of 300 of her
warrior women, visited Alexander
while he was pursuing his conquests
in the East. They were exceedingly
warlike, and were supposed to have
derived their national appellation
from the practice of destroying, by
excision or burning, the right breast,
which impeded their movements
in drawing the bow and in throwing
the javelin.
However all this may be it appears
extremely possible that there have
been periods in the history Of the
world when the men Of certain ma
lions have been almost wholly ex'

garden are in bloom and the breeze
is scented with their fragrance.
Even this early in the year they use
it. Passing down the avenue one
day last week | saw a pleasant, home

den below played two little tots OF 5

The sudden death in February,
1886, of the Secretary's beautiful
daughter, Katherine, whose accom-
plishments bad made her great IA
vorite in all circles, and the death of
his wife two weeks later was not only
an overwhelming family affection,
but an irreparable loss to the social
life OF the capital. The family circle
of Mr.. Bayard was, and is one of the
most charming in Washington. Mrs.
Bayard, whose marriage took place
in 1858, was a daughter OF Josiah
Lee, a retired India merchant and
banker of Baltimore. She was the
mother of twelve children, nine of
whom, six girls and three boys, grew
up. Annie Francis Bayard, who has

Secretary Bayard lives quite unos-

residence is in keeping with the ex-

Though Mr.. Bayard has never been

house has always been the center OF

him a more educated and refined

Shea was convicted of the crime of

the reason that the prisoners health was

An alarm of fire was turned in at $50
o'clock last evening from box 25 BY J. D.
Corey, who observed smoke and fines
issuing from the stable Of NJ Sachs, near
the corner Of Nineteenth and Evans
streets.
The Alerts and hooks were soon on the
scene, closely followed by the Duranls
The Alerts captured The hydrants IN that
vicinity and soon had two streams pouring
on the burning structure, and extin
guished the flames in short order. The
edifce was constructed with ordinary pine
lumber and burned rapidly. A COW was
rescued from the building, and the only
loss sustained was a ton of hay and the
stable, which could be replaced by an ex-
penditure of $3.50. 1t is supposed that
the fire was started by some boys who
occasionally play about the place, Mr..
Sachs was loud in his praises of the eff
cheney and promptness Of the fire depart

Called Back, a dramatization of the
r, alistic novel of the same name written
by the lamented Hugh Conway. was pre-
sented last evening to a good audience at
the opera house. The play was given
here a little less than a year ago under
the auspices of the Grismer Davies com
bination, but it was relished Just the same
by the audience which aga n witnessed its
presentation last night. With the excep-
ton Of the two lea1ing characters the
play has been almost entirely recast, but
with the result Of securing a we'll balanced
COMPANY fully equal to every dramatic
requirement. The plot of the play is so
well known that it is altogether unneces.
rary to rehoarse it here. 1t abounds in
realistic touches, in strong situations and
10 climaxes which are both powerful
and dramatic. Mr.. Grismer gave
a well sustained characterization OF

sympathy of the audience and merited
the frequent applause. Miss Davies gave

adroit handling to render it completely
effective and it certainly lost lone of its
strength or grace in the hands of Miss
Davies. The remainder of the cast was
strong throughout and the whole per.
foruance gave the audience u~ndisguised
satisfaction.
